Mindless youth of today

If we had sharia law I would volunteer to cut off the hands of these little shy-tes. - They really should be euthanised.

OK so it's Daily mail but

Absolutely appalling. There is no respect for anything. There is absolutely no consequence in society anymore, it is basically a free for all.

Look at Farage getting covered in milkshake earlier today. When did this kind of thing become acceptable?

Unfettered anarcho capitalism is surely what everyone wanted after voting this way for decades?

‘Maximum liberty, mob rule?, yes please!’ Said the British public.

I saw that earlier on the BBC (linky). Hammer ... kneecaps, baseball bat ... gonads. Repeat until lesson learned.

When the ability to sanction at an early age was removed.

That’s terrible. The work and expense these guys have put into creating that. Destroyed in minutes by a horrible little bunch of gob******. No respect in this country any more.

VincentHanna · 20 May 2019 at 15:46

I saw this, appalling really for those people. Absolute mindless vandalism.

Not sure how old the kids arrested were, but vandals have always been around - Not really seeing it as a new trend. I would concede that teenagers have absolutely no fear from police though.

Is there nothing you won’t blame on the Tories. Utterly pathetic.

This has nothing to do with politics, it’s just a basic lack of decency and respect that’s all too common in today’s society.

I blame this on everyone, the lack of decency and respect is partly due to the systemic destruction of everything for short term profit.

Even the poor blokes who were the victims? We into victim blaming now are we.

They should be made to pay it all back and if they cant then the parents have to step in even if they have to sell everything they own to pay.

Back in the good old days we have nothing like this................ apart from the countless examples where similar has happened.

Skidder · 20 May 2019 at 15:52

I hope the Swayze Express wasn't there.

Name and shame, put em in the stocks

Yep.

People have been moaning about the "youth of today" since the creation of the term "Teenager" in the 50's

I'm not even sure this was just mindless in this case there seems to be an utter contempt for the people who were involved in the model railways stuff by those vandals.

Unfortunately seems to far too common these days to have no respect for other people's property, etc.

I'm pretty sure you don't understand ancap position at all.
This would be a clear violation of the Nap.

Oh it goes back far further than that!

“Whither are the manly vigour and athletic appearance of our forefathers flown? Can these be their legitimate heirs? Surely, no; a race of effeminate, self-admiring, emaciated fribbles can never have descended in a direct line from the heroes of Potiers and Agincourt...”

But I saw this story as well and it really upset me tbh, just completely mindless vandalism

Crap parents, useless kids.
Schools should bring back the cane/ruler.
If you have no home discipline you might get some beaten into you at school.
I think there needs to be public beatings, violence solves everything on some level.
Name shame and beat the kids.
If we are lucky they will be non white and religious.
Beat everyone, beat them off too.

I was beaten as a kid, never did me harm except the broken ribs.

I don't want to "beat off" boys, thanks.
